Really pleased with the info on this thread, spoke to NFU today and they came up with a great deal for me and as already said, were really nice to deal with as well so thanks to all

Nice one, didn’t bother with Direct Line Group for comparison then

I did as it happens, they were about 400quid higher..

I live in London N6, so I’m guessing NFU would not cover me? I’ll have to ask.

I made a £2k vandalism claim with Direct Line. No issues at all, in fact I was pleased with them. L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso
RRS TDV6 HSE Lux (MY2011)... Nara Bronze / Arabica - now gone!

I might be as far out as a light house but I can’t see them saying no? Perhaps a higher than normal premium but unless you are living in down town Afghanistan I think you will be quoted.

Just insured with NFU too Nick, they impressed me too and the level of cover you get is brilliant  2018 Range Rover Sport SVR arrived but now rejected!
2019 Range Rover Sport SVR in Madagascar orange arrived but never heard it coming but now rejected!
2019 Range Rover Sport SVR in Madagascar orange incoming

Adding to the chorus of approval for NFU.

Best quote I've had for the forthcoming purchase by some way and an absolute pleasure to deal with (Harrow office).

I found Landrover came up with a good price for me, been with them for a while with the D4 as well, and you get genuine Landrover screens every time MY18 RRS Autobiography Fuji White
MY15 D4 Commercial Indus Silver

Having also been through the insurance renewal take, I concur that RRS's are listed the plague mary,'s of the insurance world, especially post mk1 face lift models.
Substantial exess' (bumpers with cameras) and tracker requirements and some companies such as Direct Line not offering cover depending on post code etc.
They are too easy to steal thanks to keyless entry, thanks LR, and are desirable to thrives.
Sadly I can't see it getting any better and if we want to carry on owning these cars we will just have to bend over and pay.
Of course there are alternatives, and increasingly, I think people will abandon these cars which will become the preserve of the rich.

One of the problems that means you have to call many of the discounters is the value of the car - they don’t want high value risks, they want to catch all the Ford Focuses and Vauxhall Insignias at less then £30,000 - the value of any Land Rover product now is so high and the cost to repair them costs so much that these guys treat them as special cases. Back in 1996 I changed from a Rover 216 to a Disco 1 V8i ES and after 15 years as a customer they refused to insure me in the Disco and the reason given then was that they didn’t cover vehicles with off road ability as they were too high a risk......... Interestingly I asked them for a quote for my new car which really has no offroad ability and they wanted £1800pa for a garaged Mini! Both Land Rover Insurance and NFU offered fully comp and protect NCB for £350 and NFU included offroad use if I wanted it as the car is 4WD - my postcode is also part of a farm according to NFU. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

NFU won't quote me at all due to postcode LU postcode which is half of Bedfordshire, shame as quotes from you guys sound reasonable. MY18 SCV8 Satin flux silver

Canary, i don't know if you phoned the main NFU number or not but this is what happened to me.
I phoned the main number gave my postcode then the chap came back to me and said they where not competitive in this area so would not waste my time. So i then searched on their site for my local branch and phoned them , bang great quote and now insured with them.
Good Luck. SVR 2018 in Santorini Black.

Wifes current X3 2.0D insurer (eSure) refused to insure an MY16 RRS - went to AA, matched eSure renewal for the X3 (£370) and quoted the RRS at £200 more...thought reasonable with an AL post code.

@svr

Tbats great advice thank you, don't know why I didn't think about that as I have dealt with the bovingdon office for a number of years!

It'll have to be next time now as I had to take new insurance mid term as my current insurers wouldn't take on my new car forcing me to cancel and take a cheap new policy, very annoying. MY18 SCV8 Satin flux silver
